The blended family..

I have been with my husband for just over two years..we have had lots of issues blending our two families. I have a son who is now 10 almost 11and a daughter who is now 14. He has two boys one is now 8 and the other is now 6. He also has a stepdaughter who is now 15 and lives with her mother. Together we have a 1 year old daughter. So all together that is 6 kids and as of now we have 5 that live with us. We have had many issues and have had many things to deal with. Yet we have managed to deal and as of today are more in love with each other than ever before. Remember that if your blending families that its important to be honest even when you feel like its petty or dumb and to communicate always about everything.

Love brings a family together...

Love...and forgiveness

We share our love stories and speak of our significant others and  how much we love them. My thought is do we really love them. I mean truly love them unconditionally. I wonder how many couples love each other unconditionally. I mean like we as mother's love our children. If our children do bad  things or things we don't agree with we love them no matter what. I can't think of a single thing my child could do that would ever make me stop loving them. However people stop loving there significant others for all kinds of dumb reasons. You should have unconditional love for your mate. If you love someone truly love that person then you love them no matter what. That is how i believe true love is. Yes you fight and disagree but you always forgive and make up with each other. When you forgive someone that means you don't throw it back at them next time you fight. Otherwise you haven't truly forgiven them. These are my thoughts and yes it's hard to be in a relationship with someone, but oh so worth it. Keep working on it and you shall have the best life with your soul mate. Gotta go for now. Talk to you later.

Blended family

Sometimes I think my life is like a box of chocolates, I never know what is going to come about during my day. Things are always changing at my house usually chaos. I am from a blended family and I am trying to blend my own family. This can be trying on your relationship with your lover. You have to remember the reasons why you are with that person and if you really love your lover, then you must be willing to work out any issues. You must discuss issues calmly and as rationally as possible. Although when blending families this can be difficult, because emotion always comes into play. I find it helpful to write things down that I feel. I usually write him letter. Even if i never give it to him. This way I can pick out the most important points and things that I can talk about without getting emotional. Then we talk somewhere and sometime when we have little or no interruptions, which for us can be hard..we have 5 kids..the youngest is a year old and the oldest is 14 years old. So we always have things to discuss.

Tough times

Sometimes I find my life like a box of chocolates. I never know what I am going to get from one day to the next. Some days are good some are bad and some well i would like a "do over". I am sure everyone feels this way and I am sure we all have different things going on in our life that cause issues. I have three main areas..children,husband,and financial issues. Of course then there are the sub areas..I have a blended family so those with blended families know about the extra issues. The Ex's and they always have opinions plus the stuff they pump into the kids heads while they are there. I plan to break down each of my own isses over the next few blogs. Motherhood calls gotta go.
